Lansdowne House First Nation
"Neskantaga (also known as Lansdowne
House, Ontario), is a remote First Nations reserve and community in the northern
reaches of the Canadian province of Ontario, situated along the shore of
Attawapiskat Lake. The town is linked to the rest of Ontario by the
Lansdowne House Airport, and by winter roads and ice roads to points south, via
the Northern Ontario Resource Trail. It has a total aboriginal population of 316
people."
The book, "Sense of Adventure: An Account of a Journey in the
Canadian Wilderness" by Adam Shoalts, details a canoe trip the author made to
Neskantaga during the summer of 2004.
